Do you wake up with a sore jaw? A dull headache? Or maybe your partner has mentioned that you make a horrible grinding sound in your sleep? If any of that sounds familiar, you might be grinding your teeth at night. Dentists call it bruxism, and it's more common than you might think. We can examine your teeth for telltale signs of grinding and help you decide if a night guard is the right step. 🙌

At Bethesda Family Smiles, we see the effects of grinding all the time. But we also have an effective solution: a custom-fitted night guard.

🪥 Dental Tip!

Did you know your toothbrush should be replaced every 3 months?

Over time, toothbrush bristles become worn and less effective at removing plaque and bacteria. Using a fresh toothbrush helps keep your teeth cleaner, your gums healthier, and your smile brighter. ✨

It’s also a good idea to replace your toothbrush after you’ve been sick to help reduce the chance of reintroducing germs.

A small habit can make a big difference in your oral health! 💜

📅 Ready for your next dental checkup? We’d love to help keep your smile healthy.

Hearing the words "gum disease" at the dentist's office can feel scary. Your mind might jump to surgery or losing teeth. But most gum disease can be stopped, and early stages can even be reversed. 😁

Our latest article explains your options. A regular cleaning cleans above your gum line. A deep cleaning goes further, removing bacteria and tartar from the roots of your teeth and smoothing those roots so your gums can reattach. The procedure itself isn't painful; we use numbing gel or local anesthetic to keep you comfortable. If your gums bleed when you brush, don't ignore it. It's not normal, and you don't have to just accept it. Read on to learn more. 📲
